tegan's baby shower

i have been looking forward to this baby shower for ages! tegan first contacted me in may to start organising her baby shower, i knew that the time would go fast- but not this fast! tegan wanted a babushka themed baby shower and since the sex was unkown she wanted the colour scheme to be yellow, peach and cornflour blue. nathalie made a very cute custom design and i put together the rest of the sweets and a tea party to match- i think it all turned out so so so sweet!

i also had the pleasure of meeting the girls from chic artistry who do amazing work, i recommend them for any of my brides to be, find their facebook here.

oh so sweet!

i made this very sweet cake for little Gabriella's christening to match the Imprintables oh so sweet invitation, it was adjusted for a pink and mint colour scheme and to include a bow- i think it all turned out quite cute!

engagement shoot

a couple of weeks ago i had the pleasure of working with photographer justin aaron, helping style this super gorgeous engagement shoot. corrine and brad are such a cute couple and it was such a relaxed, lovely sunday afternoon in beautiful newcastle. justin did such an amazing job capturing these beautiful images and i cant stop sighing over how perfectly sweet they are....

it was so much fun working with them all and i cant wait to work on their wedding later in the year!

and thanks to style me pretty australia for the lovely feature!

in my job there are alot of late nights and alot of early mornings, i was so happy when i had a baby shower to set up in newcastle- i didnt have to drive 2 hours to sydney first!! but then i found out it was a 10 am start so i had to arrive at 6am to set up... so no sleep in for me. lucky i got to look out over this beautiful sunrise all morning!

... it was THE cutest baby shower, i will post pics soon! for now here is a little look at my flower shopping...

one year tall!

Julie ordered this very cute custom designed invitation from imprintables for her very cute and very tall one year old son... the invite and colour scheme made it quite easy to design some gorgeous sweets to match! i also made the cute little vine garland, i love how simple, sweet and effective it turned out!
